School Year
Open House or Tour
Our enrollment process begins with an open house or tour, where parents tour the school and meet teachers and staff. If you have any follow-up questions, we are happy to schedule a conference call. Reserve a spot for one of our upcoming tours here.
Application
If you decide to apply, we ask that you complete and submit an application, along with a one-time, non-refundable processing fee. We will review your application carefully to better understand your goals for your child and how your family will fit within our community.
Play Visit
Now it’s time for us to meet your child! This gives your child the chance to explore our school, and us the chance to learn more and answer any additional questions you may have.
Enrolling at Eastern Ridge
Once you are accepted, you will need to complete all enrollment paperwork before your child begins. In preparation for beginning attendance, we offer play visits and/or a gradual transition schedule based on your child’s needs. Parent workshops and other family events help the entire family make a smooth transition.
Application Deadlines for 2023-2024 School Year
All applications received prior to February 10, 2023 will be considered first, and offers made based on best fit. If there are still openings after considering all applicants in the initial pool, we will begin considering subsequent applications on a rolling basis until all spots are filled. Prospective families may continue to apply, in order to remain in our applicant pool for unexpected midyear openings or for early consideration for admission during the following (2024-25) school year.
Summer Camps
Summer-camp info is typically available in late January or early February. Parents are invited — but not required — to attend an open house or tour. You may register for the entire summer (typically nine or ten weeks) or as little as one week. Camps are taught by the same teachers who are at Eastern Ridge during the regular school year.
